2025 has come and just about gone. Thousands of liveries have have seen the track throughout the year - many good, many bad and a bunch of real beauties. Here are my top 30 of 2025.

Honda showed how little you need to change when a design already works.
Used for many years already, they donned the familiar colours in 2012, clean as ever. Stoner took 5 wins, Pedrosa took 7, and it marked Stoner’s final season.

The Force India 2007 winter test livery was a beautiful in-between moment. White & burgundy, with gold accents. Short-lived and oddly absent in the annual testing liberty discussions, despite being one of the best.

As we enter the new year and having already looked back at the best of 2025, it is time to look at the opposite spectrum of motorsport liveries. Here are the worst liveries of 2025.

Jeff Gordon’s 2000 season wasn’t one of his dominant ones, but the rainbow No. 24 was still one of the most recognisable liveries in the sport. Three wins, P9 in points, and the last great chapter of the full DuPont rainbow era.

The Benetton B193 wasn’t a title winner, but it was a statement nonetheless. Schumacher took two wins in ’93, and the car’s yellow & green livery became a 90s classic, albeit less famous than other famous Benetton liveries.

As they transitioned into a Supercars powerhouse, Triple Eight ran the Beta Electrical Falcons for the second time in 2006, with the iconic pairing of Lowndes & Whincup. A Bathurst win and a controversial 2nd place in the title followed.

Bryan Herta’s 1996 Team Rahal Reynard-Honda is pure 90s CART energy.
Black & white with some Shell yellow & red – it just looked cool but only snagged 2 podiums. Early in Herta’s career, but the livery was already a classic.

1993 DTM gave us one of the cleanest touring car liveries ever. Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti wore pure Alfa red with extra large Alga Romeo logos and bold number panels–nothing more, nothing less. Larini took 10 wins and both titles.

Reflective blue, sweeping orange accents and a tessellating triangular pattern - this Gen 1 livery looked fast standing still. A modern design that nailed the futuristic brief and defined early Formula E livery design.

Bright yellow with giant paw prints! Tekno's 2013 livery had such fun privateer energy. Memorable sponsor and livery despite it's short tenure.

Jaguar R1 (2000)
British Racing Green at its best. The R1 wasn’t quick, but it looked classy: deep metallic green, crisp white sidepods, and that iconic Jaguar on the engine cover.
It never won, but in the livery stakes, it’s still top tier.

Tyrrell 025 (1997)
Slow, fragile, and more white than I'm comfortable with. Thin black lines and that's about it. Salo bagged two points at Monaco. They even had Xena on the side at times. A backmarker in every sense - but likeable all the same.

Nice chrome throwback from #McLaren. I think the black sections could have been left off leaving a chrome and papaya only effort, it looks stuck between two liveries for me. #f1 #britishgp #silverstone #chrome

March 751 (1975)
Memorable livery & season. Bright orange paint. A clean black Beta logo. Raw metal rear wing. Doing a lot with only a little. A Brambilla win in Austria & crash after the flag. Lombardi scoring a (half) point — the only woman to do so.

Super Aguri SA08A (2008)

Tyrrell’s 1984 season ended in disgrace—but visually? A beauty.
Bellof’s black, red & yellow design matched his helmet to perfection. Brundle’s Yardley brown shouldn’t have worked but kind of did. Rare split liveries, both memorable.

The Lotus 99T might be the cleanest “two-tone” livery F1’s ever seen. Just yellow and navy, no distractions — even all the logos match.
It took Senna to two wins in ’87, but it’s the design harmony that really sticks with you.
